One of the great silent films, renowned for its sensational story-line, sparkling Weimar period setting and the iconic star Louise Brooks as Lulu, a spirited but innocent showgirl whose sexual magnetism wreaks havoc on the lives of men and women alike. Controversial in its day, then underappreciated for decades, Pandora's Box now stands as an incredibly modern movie and few stars of any era dazzle as brightly as Louise Brooks.
